If everyone is so divided over this 'edifying/fabricating' question...
...isn't there a way to submit a complaint to the CollegeBoard about the question(s)? With such strong numbers and reasoning for both sides, I think we have a legitimate shot.

I'm sticking to my guns. Fabricating still doesn't make sense. He was using facts from his father's essays and stories his mom told him, he wasn't making stuff up to fill in the blanks.

Nope. This is a perfectly sane, intellectual debate with good intentions on both sides.

Define "Controversial - Hypothesis" lol

I'm also for enigma/edifying. The puzzle/fabricating one was too literal a meaning for the passage. The entire thing was written with metaphors.
